Dutch to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Finance (general) / Annual report
Dutch term or phrase: bedrijfsthesaurie
"Wijziging in de bedrijfsthesaurie"

Heading in a table of financial information that is part of an annual report.

I have translated it as "Changes in operating reserves", even though "thesaurie" = treasury.

Please confirm or make a another substantiated suggestion.
TIA

Thanks to all for their input. I like Chris Hopley's "liquidity position" best, because all the othe items in the list are on a company level. Operating cash flow would be a little more sub-ordinated, but is also correct in many instances.

Most likely the \'bedrijfs\'-part is redundant!?
